We must have been to the Southland Little Amigos a dozen times by now, so when I heard they were opening a second Melbourne location at Highpoint Shopping Centre, I wasn’t going to wait around for the school holidays to check it out. It officially opened on 5 September, and we went in that first […]
Carina Leagues Club’s Playland – Price, Age Range and Reviews
Both kids went down that entry slide and didn’t look back. My son ran straight in without a glance over his shoulder, and within five minutes my daughter had completely forgotten I existed. By the end of the session neither of them wanted to leave — we got the full “one more go” treatment on […]
Little Amigos Southland Review
We went back to Little Amigos at Southland on a quiet weekday morning, deliberately avoiding the weekend rush. It’s on Level 2 of Westfield Southland, and the easiest way in is through the Village Cinemas entrance, that side of the centre puts you almost right at the door. If you’ve got a Westfield membership, it’s […]
Kidsday Chatswood Chase: Price, Age Range and What We Really Thought
I got lost on the way in, which is embarrassing to admit because I know Chatswood Chase reasonably well by now. Kidsday sits up on Level 3, the rooftop car park level, and I still did a lap of the whole centre before I found the right lift. If you’re heading there for the first […]
Chouchou Bebe Wentworth Point — Is It Worth the Drive? Our Honest Review
We’d heard about Chouchou Bebe Wentworth Point from three different parenting group posts before we finally loaded the kids in the car and went to see it ourselves. That’s usually a sign something’s either genuinely good or very well marketed. After a wet Saturday spent there, we think it’s a bit of both. Chouchou Bebe […]
Gumnuts Playland Knox Review
We’d been putting off a weekend trip to Westfield Knox for weeks, mostly because every indoor play centre we already knew felt a bit tired. Then a friend mentioned a new one had opened on Level 2, near Timezone, with a whole nature theme and Aussie animal mascots. That was enough to get us in […]
Minoland Oakleigh Review: Is Melbourne’s Biggest New Indoor Playground Worth the Hype?
By day three of the school holidays I was out of ideas. It was grey outside, the kids had reached that particular pitch of restlessness that only happens indoors, and my group chat had spent the whole week going on about a huge new indoor playground that had just opened in Oakleigh. Someone described it […]
Landing Playcentre Bundoora Review
If you’re looking for indoor playgrounds in Bundoora for a rainy day, school holidays, or just to burn off some toddler energy, Landing Playcentre is one of the best-looking (and best-run) options in Melbourne’s north. We spent a full morning there and here’s everything you need to know before you go. Where Is Landing Playcentre […]

Overall feeling is very good, environment is very clean, if you avoid peak hours there are not many people, relatively quiet and very toddler friendly, staff also clean up very quickly. Especially the little deer who loves pretending games […]
MOPA Thomastown Review
It’s weekend again — time to take the kids out. Today we chose MOPA in the north. We’ve been once before, and the kids didn’t want to leave at all, so we went again today. This is a museum specially designed for children and families. It blends art, creativity, and play together, using all kinds […]
